Replaced disk from FAS2020 into FAS2040+DS4243, now what?

Good day. Let me start by stating I do not want to save data. This is starting from scratch.

I have moved 12 drives from a FAS2020 into a DS4243 that is ran from a FAS2040. I thought that the drives from the 2020 were zeroed out but I was mistaken. I can see the drives in the CLI of both controllers on 2040. I do not see the drives if I run DISK SHOW or DISK SHOW -N. I do see them listed when I run DISK SHOW -A (see below) but they are still listing the old 2020 filer name (sv-storage-1b or 2b). I was not able to remove ownership because “disk remove_ownership: Disk 0d.01.4 does not exist”. Any way to get these drives to work in the 4243 with out having to go back to the 2020 to zero out the drives? This is a repurposed design for a disk-to-disk backup solution I am working on. Thanks!

The 0c.00.xx is the FAS 2040 disks (active/active 3 drives per controller)

The 0d.01.xx is the DS4243 with the newly added 1TB SATA drives (replaces 300GB SAS)

This is related to disk ownership, first you have to remove the ownership at older controller then only you can add those disk drives to new controller. Fine now you no need to go back to older controller to do all this. Use the following command:

To be clear, you are saying I need to remove these drives and bring them back to the FAS2020 and remove disk ownership there? Isn't there anyway I can do that on the 2040? What if the 2020 was dead? Again, I do not want to save data on these drives. I just want to reuse them. Also since the 2020 was setup with two controllers and had the aggr setup on 6 drives per controller, would I even be able to remove ownership? Would this need to be done in maintance mode and would it let me do this if there is a aggr or vol on the drives?

I ask all these questions because there brackets are not the same for the 2020 and the ds4243 and that means a lot of screws to deal with

Cluster 1b is the 2020 that I pulled the drives from that is not connected to any of this any longer. These 1TB drives are not in sv-storage-1a / sv-storage-2a cluster that has a DS4243 connected with only the 1TB drives that were pulled from the 2020. No other drives are in the 4243.
